NewLife News: The Attributes of God - All Knowing & All Seeing

“You are the God who sees me.”
Gen. 16:13, NLT

Hey Y’all,

The Scripture we walk through together on Sundays isn’t just theoretical theology to make us feel better or to help us feel spiritual. On the contrary, these are spiritual truths that are reality on which we can base our lives. Even if we’ve heard similar messages or even the same truth repeated, they are worthy of our focus, meditation, and obedience. These truths are also capable of comforting us.

This week we studied how God is All-Knowing and All-Seeing. While that can seem rather obvious, when we really ponder it, we can rest knowing that our Heavenly Father knows everything about us and knows exactly what’s happening with us (Ps. 139:1-3). On the other side of the coin, since He knows everything and sees everything, He’s able to hold us perfectly accountable (Heb. 4:13) for our lives and how we’ve lived out the life of Jesus within our contexts. That’s not a Heavenly threat, just reality.

So in good times and bad, happy times or sad, peaceful times or stressful, He’s our perfect, Holy, loving, merciful, good, faithful, eternal, unchanging, God. He’s our rock, so let us trust in Him (Is. 26:4) and let us walk with Him (Micah 6:8). 

Throughout each day, may we lean on Jesus, the perfect Son and true embodiment of His Father.
